"Oh. Are you sure?" Li Lili asked seriously.
As soon as Li Lili finished speaking, Chen Ling immediately said, "We have important business to attend to tomorrow, so we can't stay up late again tonight. If you really want to play, I can play with you for a little while."
"Forget it, forget it, let's not play anymore. Let's go to the mall later to buy some things for Xiaoqi, and bring them over tomorrow," Li Lili said.
"Then let's go straight to the city center. Let's not eat at home tonight," Chen Ling said casually.
So Chen Ling and Li Lili went to a Western restaurant. They didn't usually like eating at places like this; Li Lili preferred hot pot. But life needs a touch of ritual, and it was nice to come here occasionally.
It was truly a coincidence that Chen Ling and his friends ran into their college classmate when they first arrived at the Western restaurant.
The other person then said, "Oh, Mr. Chen, Ms. Shen, what a coincidence! You're here to eat too."
"What a coincidence," Chen Ling said casually.
"Mr. Chen, when did you and Goddess Shen become so close? Could it be that what they're saying is true, that you two are married?" the other person said with a smile, their tone full of contempt.
"Yes. We're married," Chen Ling said, holding Li Lili's hand.
"This is progressing really fast," the man said to his female companion.
"We're hungry, let's go over first," Li Lili said directly. At that moment, after speaking, Li Lili immediately pulled Chen Ling away.
Chen Ling and Li Lili didn't like this classmate very much, and even felt some aversion towards him. Therefore, they didn't invite him to their wedding. He probably held a grudge because of this incident; not inviting him to the wedding made him lose face in front of his classmates.
The two of them were indeed a bit hungry, and since they were going shopping later, they ate quickly.
"Chen Ling, let's go buy a longevity lock and a bracelet," Li Lili said, pulling Chen Ling along as they walked.
"Hello, do you need any help?" the waiter asked warmly.
"Let's just browse around first, and we'll contact you if we need anything," Li Lili said. She then began selecting items with Chen Ling.
"Hello, could you help me get this?" Li Lili said after a while.
"Madam, you have excellent taste. This is a new style, just arrived, and this is the only one left," the sales clerk said.
"It's pretty good, I'll take it." Li Lili examined it carefully after receiving it.
Then Li Lili asked, "Do you have any good bracelet recommendations?"
"This way," the sales clerk said. Then she led them to another counter.
"How about this?" the salesperson asked after taking it out. It was clear the salesperson had a good eye; the selection was indeed excellent.
"Okay, help me wrap it up," Li Lili said.
After buying all the gifts, the two immediately headed home. They needed to rest early to recharge, as they were going to visit their niece tomorrow.
Chen Ling and Li Lili got up early. Chen Ling was very excited at the thought of visiting his niece. The two quickly arrived at Chen Xiaoqi's house.
"Uncle," Chen Ling and Li Lili called out. Li's father opened the door.
"Come in quickly," Mr. Li said cheerfully.
"Mom and Dad, why are you here earlier than us? We thought we were early enough," Chen Ling said as soon as he entered and saw his parents.
"That's right, your mom was so excited she couldn't sleep, and she got up before dawn," Mr. Chen said with a grin.
"Your dad's the same, haha," Chen's mother said with a laugh. The house was filled with a happy atmosphere.
"Mom and Dad, I'll go check on the child first," Li Lili said.
Upon hearing this, Chen's mother immediately said, "Don't go yet. The child has just fallen asleep, and we were afraid of waking her, so we came out first. Let's go over when she wakes up."
Seeing this, Li Lili sat down.
So all of them chatted in the living room. But it was at this moment that Li Ran came out.
"I heard my brother and sister-in-law's voices, so I came to check on them," Li Ran said as soon as he entered the living room.
"Where's Xiaoqi?" Chen Ling asked. "She's inside watching the child," Li Ran explained.
"Have you decided on a name for the baby yet?" Li Lili asked. "Not yet, we're just waiting for today so we can think of a good name together," Li Ran replied.
"How about calling her Li Xuan?" Chen's mother suggested.
"No, no, that doesn't sound good. Let's think of another one, something else," Mr. Chen retorted.
"Xiangqin, Li Xiangqin, what do you think?" Li Lili began.
“That won’t work either. It doesn’t sound right,” Li Ran added.
“His surname is Li…” Chen Ling began. However, before he could finish speaking, his mother interrupted him. She said, “Then naturally his surname is Li.”
"Mom, don't interrupt. I meant that if the surname is Li, how about Li Muqing?" Chen Ling had actually thought about naming her a long time ago.
“Okay, this is good,” Li Lili said.
“I think it’s good too, Li Muqing, it sounds nice,” Li Ran began.
"Let's go with this one then," Mr. Li suggested.
"Haha, the name is decided. Let's call her Qingqing as her nickname," Li Ran said.
However, at that moment, Chen Xiaoqi also came out of the room.
"Xiaoqi," Li Lili said.
"Sister-in-law." Chen Xiaoqi quickly walked over and sat down next to Li Lili.
"What time are we going to the hotel?" Chen Xiaoqi asked again.
"Let's go at eleven o'clock. Everything's ready over there. We can just go straight there. There aren't any rules," Mr. Li said.
So they started chatting again in the guest room.
The whole house was filled with a joyful atmosphere. It's true what they say, good things really do make people radiant. You could tell how happy everyone was from their voices.
Chapter 342 Full Moon Banquet
Just as they were having a lively conversation, Qingqing woke up in the room. She was crying loudly.
"You guys chat first, I'll go check," Chen Xiaoqi said immediately upon hearing the voice. She then strode towards the room. Once inside, Chen Xiaoqi began to soothe the baby. After a while, it was time for them to leave.
"It's about time we went," Mr. Chen reminded them as they were having a pleasant conversation.
"Yes, okay, I'll go call Xiaoqi." Li Ran checked the time after hearing this and then spoke.
So they packed their things and prepared to leave. The hotel was very close to Li Ran's home, and they arrived there in no time. Li Ran didn't have many relatives in the area, so they hadn't held a big celebration for the full moon celebration. At this time, none of the invited relatives had arrived yet.
"Xiaoqi, why don't you take the child over to rest for a while? Don't let him catch a cold." Li's mother said as soon as she arrived at the hotel.
“Oh, okay. But I’m a bit bored by myself, sister-in-law, why don’t you come with me? We can talk to each other.” Chen Xiaoqi said to Li Lili.
“Great, that’s wonderful!” Li Lili said quickly. Then she and Chen Xiaoqi went to their hotel room together.
"In-laws, would you like to go and rest first?" Mr. Li asked Mrs. Chen again.
“We don’t need it, let’s help out here,” Mrs. Chen said after glancing at Mr. Chen.
"Okay, okay," Mr. Li quickly replied. Then they began to wait together for the guests to arrive.
"Come in, come in," Mrs. Li warmly greeted the arriving relatives.
The banquet was approaching, and guests began to arrive one after another. They were all busy preparing. Meanwhile, in the hotel room, Li Lili was helping Chen Xiaoqi hold the baby.
Li Lili was seen happily coaxing the baby, and Chen Xiaoqi, who was standing nearby, couldn't help but tease her, saying, "Sister-in-law, since you like children so much, why don't you have one yourself?"
"It's not the right time yet. We have plenty of time. Let's not think about having children yet," Li Lili said with a smile after hearing this.
However, judging from Li Lili's awkward rather than polite smile, it's clear she has other ideas.
"Sister-in-law, then you should come and visit her more often," Chen Xiaoqi said, looking down at the baby. She knew in her heart that Li Lili had other ideas, but since Li Lili didn't want to talk about it, she wouldn't ask any further.
“Okay, I definitely will. Oh, right, I forgot to give you the gift I brought for her when I was at home. It’s in my bag, but I’m holding the baby right now, so it’s inconvenient for me to take it out. Could you take it out for me?” Li Lili said, gesturing to Chen Xiaoqi with her eyes.
"Thank you on behalf of Xiao Qingqing." Chen Xiaoqi thanked her first, and then got up to get her things.
"Don't be so polite, we're all family," Li Lili said.
"It's so beautiful," Chen Xiaoqi said after seeing it.
"I'm glad you like it. Take it back to Qingqing," Li Lili said again.
So Chen Xiaoqi and Li Lili started talking about other things.
“Let’s go, Chen Ling sent a message telling us to come over,” Li Lili suddenly said.
So Chen Xiaoqi, carrying the baby, walked out with Li Lili. When they arrived at the private room, the relatives immediately crowded around, looking at the baby and bringing their respective gifts.
"Let's eat first, let's eat first," Mr. Li said warmly. He then sat down and began to eat. Most of the mealtime was spent discussing Chen Xiaoqi and her daughter. Since everyone present was Li Ran's relative, they naturally praised Li Ran.
"If you ask me, Second Sister, you're so lucky. Look how beautiful Li Ran found you such a beautiful daughter-in-law. She's a big star too," Li Ran's aunt said.
"It's all because the children are compatible; it has nothing to do with fate," said Mrs. Li calmly.
The entire private room was filled with flattering remarks. Chen Xiaoqi had never liked this kind of atmosphere, so she didn't say much throughout the meal.
"I'm done eating. I'll take Qingqing back to her room to sleep for a while." Chen Xiaoqi quickly ate something and then made an excuse to leave. She really didn't want to waste any more time there. Back in her room, Chen Xiaoqi was still happy, thinking that she had finally escaped that kind of environment.
But even after Chen Xiaoqi left, the dinner continued. The relatives kept offering words of praise. It was quite a while before the relatives finally left one by one.
However, before the relatives left, Li Lili went to keep Chen Xiaoqi company. Chen Xiaoqi and Li Lili chatted about the latest clothing and bag arrivals, forgetting that they hadn't gone home yet. They only realized they were still at the hotel when Chen Ling came looking for them.
"Xiaoqi, today is Qingqing's full moon celebration. How could you take Qingqing back to the room so early? There are still many relatives outside, clamoring to see Qingqing." Chen Ling said these words as he entered.
"Brother, you know I don't like that kind of situation, right?" Chen Xiaoqi said immediately after hearing this.
"I know you don't like him, but how many people actually like him? You're all grown up now, you're a mother now, and you have to adapt to many things. You can't be as willful as a child anymore," Chen Ling advised.
"Alright, alright, brother, let's not talk about this anymore. What's wrong? Are you going back?" Chen Xiaoqi changed the subject. She thought it was getting late and most of the relatives should have left by now, so she asked.
“Yes, all the relatives have left now, but I still have to say a few words to you. You're all grown up now, and you're a mother yourself. You can't just act recklessly anymore. There are some things you need to understand and accept about the world. Of course, I don't want you to become that kind of person, but the problem is you need to learn to be proper in dealing with appearances.” Chen Ling said helplessly. He knew his sister well; she had just had a smooth life, was a bit straightforward, and usually couldn't stand these kinds of things.
"Okay, brother, I've remembered everything you said. I'll be more careful in the future, okay? Shall we go back now?" Chen Xiaoqi said coquettishly.
Chen Ling looked at his younger sister like this and felt quite helpless. He then shook his head.
Chapter 343 Disagreements Arise over Education
Chen Xiaoqi's current state is all because her family has protected her too well. Although she encountered some obstacles when she first entered the entertainment industry, she hasn't experienced much in the long run. Chen Ling thought, "Never mind, we'll take it slow. She'll understand eventually." When Chen Ling and the others arrived at the hotel entrance, their family members were already waiting.
After exchanging a few more words with Chen Xiaoqi, Chen's parents took a taxi home. Chen Ling and Li Lili, who were standing nearby, also drove away after Chen's parents left.
